Brunner (Tanner Syndrome)

Brunner syndrome, also known as Tanner syndrome, is a rare genetic condition characterized by distinctive facial features such as broad-set eyes, a flat nasal bridge, and a wide mouth. Individuals often have short stature, mild intellectual disability, and sometimes learning difficulties. The condition is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning a single copy of the altered gene can cause the disorder. While it affects appearance and development, it does not usually impact overall health significantly. Early diagnosis can help manage specific needs, supporting individuals in their growth, education, and social integration.
